When you fight another Caldari scout 1-v-1 do you guys just wiggle-strafe dance at each other until you run out of ammo? How does it work?
My advice to you, playa...

We either stand ~60m away from each other wiggle-strafing while we shoot our rail rifles. Or we wiggle-strafe (I like that term btw!) 2-5m away from each other while shotgunning/knifing each other. Same as when we fight any other suit.
And we look fabulous doing it.

Yeah, but you don't hit each other so the fight never ends, right?

I continue to thrust the booty left and right until my thumb hurts. If the other CalScout isnt dead I die.

FWIW, I run a cal scout more than any other suit...
If you try and engage a strafing cal scout at short to medium distances with a low fire rate weapon, you will lose more than you win.
Either try a high-alpha weapon (like shotgun) and time them, or a high fire rate weapon (like a CR or even a SMG).
A nade does wonders too. |

When a cal scout shoot another cal scout, it generates a paradox.
Dust player has left the battle message is a direct consequence of this paradox.
If nobody interferes, the game goes in a dangerous loop with the risk of overflow.
Here another similar paradox

I use a mass driver for matches with lots of Calscouts in now.
You have long since made your choice. What you make now is a mistake.

Yes. But usually someone gets lucky first.
Also happens with Gal/Min/Amarr scouts, and Cal/Min assaults. Also some logis.

Caldari scouts can be quite useful because if we shield tank a lot we could exploit it by moving fast, since we can just put armour reppers on or not.
The best way to deal with caldari scouts is to get guns like the CR and spray and pray at them.
Caldari vs Caldari matches can be crazy because both players can move fast, but spraying and praying helps.

Every FPS I've ever played had strafing -- and the few that didn't had extremely low TTK, making them unfun (to me) -- so it's a bit unclear to me what you mean here.
Kindly explain....
Strafing itself is fine, strafing as implemented in this game is just silly.
Every engagement is a combination of silly crap + player skill. Will bullet magnetism kick in for me, or for him? Will aim assist kick in for me, or for him? Will strafe waggle hit box exploits help me, or help him?
Player skill can mitigate this junk but everything is so inconsistent that it becomes frustrating and sometimes feels like Im gambling instead of playing a shooter. |

gk.0 scout (Ishy SMG) vs ck.0 scout (Six Kin ACR) = ck.0 wins
G-1 scout (Breach AR STD) vs ck.0 scout (Six Kin ACR) = G-1 wins
I have recently found that as Anti-Shield Wep > CalScout > Anti-Armor Wep, STD > PRO.
Your argument is now invalid/

If I use a ScR, ScP or AR they die really quick.
If I toss a flux and then use a CR or SMG they die real quick.
Kniving them in the spine also kills them real quick as do shotguns.
Any other questions?
Gun control is not about guns...it's about control.
The only way to ensure freedom is by having the means to defend it.

Please stop pretending that the unrealistic strafe "dancing" to doge bullets is only a problem with the Caldari scout suit when it applies to all players. Bloody hypocrites.

In CQC, i was 1v1 a scout ck.0 with a viziam :(
And the scrambler rifle should eat my shields with it's +20% damage to shields. We strafe and aim like a boss. My boundless combat rifle won against his viziam, even though i should have lost.
Just strafe like a boss and aim even bossier (lol)
I carry a scrambler pistol when i am in my hack suit, so dancing with heavies is easy because they barely move. And with the headshot multiplier from the scrambler pistol i can dance with them and do loads of damage!
scout ck.0 here!

The only things that can kill me very quickly are the scrambler pistols/rifles, they do the dirty job when the buddy is in problems.
Huh, what a pretty biotic a$$. *Slap*
